I need to upgrade my existing NOP Commerce site from version 1.9 to version 2.8 and I am not a computer programmer or web-site builder...
Could someone give me step by step instructions in basic terms...
I also want to make another web-site using NOP Commerce...
How do I go about doing this...
Thank you!

You need to download the nopCommerce 2.0 upgrade script. It contains a readme.txt with the instructions.
One thing to note after you upgrade to nopCommerce 2.0, you would not be able to login with the default admin account. You need to login with the admin account that you are currently using on the web site.
This is the upgrade script:
http://nopcommerce.codeplex.com/downloads/get/265405
And these are the instructions:
Steps:
1. Backup your existing database
2. Install nopCommerce 2.00 to your existing database (1.90).
IMPORTANT NOTE: Install it without sample data!!!
3. Backup your existing database (again)
4. Execute upgrade.sql script over your database
5. Restart your application (for example, modify Web.config file)
6. If your pictures were stored on the file system, then manually copy them into \Content\Images (previously they were stored into \images directory)
7. Now manually complete the following steps:
7a. Confifure Store settings (Admin area > Configuration > Settings)
7b. Configure your currencies (Admin area > Configuration > Currencies). Ensure primary store currency and primary exchange currencies are the same
7c. Configure your measure units (Admin area > Configuration > Measures)
7d. Configure your email accounts (Admin area > Configuration > Email accounts)
7e. Update your message templates (some tokens were changed)
7f. Configure your payment, shipping, tax providers
7g. Update topics (can't be automated)
7h. Reconfigure prices by customer roles (Now we have new implementation of tier prices based on customer roles)
7i. Reconfigure discount requirements for each discount (new implementation)
8. Ensure that everything is OK
Notes:
1. Now there're several built-in customer roles. You can delete some old ones if you don't need them (e.g. 'Global Administrators' became 'Administrators')
I hope this is useful!
